Love Knows No Bounds

Chapter 623

Charlotte came back with the salve. She went through the user's manual and said, "You can use this, but not too much at once."

She wanted to rub the salve for Kelly, but Kelly quickly said, "I'll do it myself."

Charlotte handed the salve to her.

Kelly rubbed it on her wound and asked, "How come you're home today? Thought you'd be with your friends."

"Kendall and Dylan are coming for dinner tonight. They'll be staying for a few days, so I was going through my recipe book for something good. I'm cooking something up."

Kelly's eyes glinted. I see. She pretended to be jealous. "You're so nice to Kendall. You never cook for me when I come home."

Charlotte smiled. "You've been with me for a much longer time than Kendall does. I've cooked tons for you. And now that Kendall's married, she won't be coming home a lot of times. You don't have to be jealous. And I've made something for you too. Good for pregnant women." Charlotte was happy that Kendall was pregnant as well, but she wasn't stupid enough to tell Kelly that. She was more than happy to pretend to be a loving mother if Kelly would put up the act of a good daughter. You're not the only one who can act. Let's see what you're up to this time.

Kelly took a look at the recipes and noticed two recipe books for pregnant women. Aw, she does care. And for an instant, she wanted to call Rosemi to cancel the plan. Just for an instant, however. The Parkers might love her, but they loved Kendall more. As long as she was alive, Kelly could never get

what she wanted. I might be cruel, but I'm nice to you guys. At least I'm planning to kill you off together. You will die together. Isn't that nice? "Aren't they going somewhere this weekend?"

"Oh, I didn't ask. Not my business. They're a loving couple. Even if they stay in on the weekend, they can still have fun." Charlotte sighed. "Kelly, I know you don't like my nagging, but I still need to say this. If you'd listened to us, you wouldn't have… I know you're not our real daughter, but you did grow up under our care, and we see you as our own. We care about you. Once the baby is born, you'll have to decide what to do. Stay away from those who don't care about you. Settle down and marry someone good. Someone honest."

But not many good men in Orapolis would marry Kelly, and Kelly wouldn't marry anyone too ordinary. If she'd listened to them and left Orapolis, then none of this would have happened. None of this would have happened if she never tried to attack Kendall. But she couldn't blame anyone for this outcome. She chose her path, and she must see it through. The company's people were starting to change their alignment. Nobody would object to it if Kelly were to be sent somewhere else in the near future, nor would they leave with her. Charlotte couldn't help but think, Oh, my. I think Adam and I are really unfair. We care about Kendall too much. But we'll leave something for Kelly. I just hope she'll be content with what she gets.

"We'll talk about that later. I don't want to think about that for now."

Charlotte took the seat beside her. She looked at Kelly in silence for a while, and she said, "About you and Brian…"

"It's in the past now. I'll deal with it. If Mrs. Zorn tries to demand anything, ignore her. It's not fully my fault. Tell her to keep her son in check."

Very well.

Kelly was done rubbing the salve eventually, and she wrapped her arm around Charlotte's shoulder. "Let's not talk about them. It ruins the mood. Let's talk about something good. They're coming home, aren't they? Why don't you guys go on a trip? It's been a while since Kendall went on a trip with you." But if Dylan's there, the plan might not work.

Well, she does have a point. "It has been a while. I think we'll be fine with just a road trip in Orapolis."

"Yeah. It's hot, so you guys can opt for the beach or a resort."

Kelly was trying her best to persuade Charlotte to go out with Kendall on the weekend. It would be best if someone could distract Dylan, but she couldn't do anything about that. Her legs would still buckle when she saw him. She felt like he could kill her, and she wondered why she was so terrified of him. Did he kill me in another world? Is that why that fear resonates with me?

"I'll bring this up with Kendall when she comes home. You come with us too."

"It's alright. Kendall doesn't like me. I… I don't want to ruin the mood." At least Kelly knew that much. "Oh, when's the wedding going to be? They've been officially married for a while now, haven't they?"

Charlotte told her the answer this time. "Before the Spring Festival, of course. But we'll pick the date once the Colemans send their gift list over."

Tilly shortlisted a few dates, but no decision had been reached. They would discuss it after the gift list had been sent. That was how the Colemans showed the Parkers respect, and Charlotte liked their attitude. The gift list-giving was a bit of a short notice, but she had confidence in Dylan. He had made

preparations beforehand.

"When are they coming, then? The wedding's not far away. I think Kendall should stay with you guys for the time being. She's going to leave our place on her big day for the ceremony." If I can't pull it off on the weekend, I will do it after that, provided Kendall stays here. She tried her best to convince Charlotte to tell Kendall to stay here until the wedding.

"They'll come next Tuesday. Oh, I almost forgot. Gotta call your mother. They did raise Kendall, and they should be here to witness the event."

Charlotte picked up her phone from the coffee table and flipped through her contacts for a while before she found Sally's number. And then she made the call.

Kelly's eyes glinted. When did they get this close? Charlotte doesn't like Kendall getting too close to the Woods. The last time the Colemans came, Dylan told his men to lead the Woods to them. Charlotte and Adam had no choice but to go with the arrangements.
